The Simblified quartet get together to discuss the phenomenon of Sportswashing illustrated by the recent Saudi takeover of Newcastle United Football Club. We highlight how political soft power is gained and human rights violations are masked by simply owning a team of a few men running after a ball. Join us for an episode on a complex and controversial topic that even triggered an outburst from the typically serene Naren.
Add one part news, one part bad jokes, one part Wikipedia research, one part cult references from spending too much time on the internet, one part Wodehouse quotes, and one part quality puns, and you get Simblified.
A weekly podcast to help you appear smarter, to an audience that knows no less! Your four hosts - Chuck, Naren, Srikeit and Tony attempt to deconstruct topics with humour (conditions apply). Fans of the show have described it as "fun conversations with relatable folks", "irreverent humour", "the funniest thing to come out of Malad West" and "if I give you a good review will you please let me go".
Started in 2016 as a creative outlet, Simblified now has over 200 episodes, including some live ones, and some with guests who are much smarter than the hosts. Welcome to the world of Simblified!
